(Second Request)

ANDREW P. GORDON, District Judge.

IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED AND AGREED, by and between the United States of America, by and through Dan Cowhig, United States Attorney, LORRAINE RIDDIOUGH, by and through her attorney, Richard E. Tanasi, Esq., that the Sentencing Hearing in the above-captioned matter, now scheduled for October 25, 2018 at 9:00 a.m., be vacated and continued, to a date and time convenient for the Court after December 1, 2018.

Pursuant to General Order No. 2007-04, this Stipulation is entered into for the following reasons:

1. The parties need more time to prepare for sentencing, specifically in that Defendant needs time to gather 18 USC 3553 related materials. Additionally, counsel for the Defendant is currently in a state murder trial (State v. Matthews), and has another federal trial scheduled to go October 30, 2018 (U.S. v. Serban, et al.).

2. Ms. Riddiough is out of custody and does not object to this continuance.

3. The additional time requested herein is not sought for purposes of delay.

4. Additionally, denial of this request for continuance could result in a miscarriage of justice.

WHEREFORE, the parties respectfully request that this Honorable Court accept the Stipulation and enter an Order as set forth below, continuing the sentencing hearing to be vacated and continued to a date and time convenient for the Court after December 1, 2018.

This matter coming before the Court on Stipulation to Continue Sentencing Hearing, the Court having considered the matter, and good cause showing, the Court accepts the Stipulation.

WHEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, that the Sentencing Hearing in the above-captioned matter, now scheduled for October 25, 2018 at 9:00 a.m., be vacated and continued to December 13, 2018 at 2:30 p.m. in Courtroom 6C.
